“It is high time for the military to take decisive action to punish erring members and ensure that such tragic incidents do not occur in the future”
” The safety and security of innocent civilians should be the utmost priority of our armed forces, and any actions to the contrary must be met with swift and appropriate consequences” he added.
Alhaji Tanimu Zariya urge the relevant authorities to act swiftly and decisively to prevent the recurrence of such a heartbreaking incident and to ensure that justice is served.
